CHCA benefits greatly again from Smile Cookie Campaign
The Cranbrook Health Care Auxiliary (CHCA) is delighted to accept a cheque for $17,848 from Tim Hortons owner/operator Matthew Gareau.
This amazing donation will go towards purchasing necessary equipment for the operating rooms at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital (EKRH).
Every year since 2005 the Gareau family has donated funds raised by the Smile Cookie Campaign to our hospital. Ā To date, that amounts to a contribution of $245,848.
Linda Foster, Campaign Team Manager, recently accepted the cheque on behalf of the CHCA.

The CHCA would also like to thank all of their members who diligently sold cookies at the EKRH for the whole week of the campaign, and thank you also goes out to the pre-sales team: Brenda Bosben, Peggy McGowan, Linda Foster and Kate Fox who sold an amazing 63 cases of cookies to our local businesses and families.
